Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It appears that you are having a sub areolar abscess (nipple abscess). It is due to acute infection and usually of bacterial origin. I suggest that you consult your doctor and get pus culture and sensitivity test done. This will identify the organism causing infection and the desirable antibiotic to be taken to kill the bacteria. You may also apply antiseptic ointment and take oral pain killers for pain management.
